			PAPUS has some things to say about this card. There are, according to Papus, four groups, all represented by the symbols on the table before the magician.
			<blockquote>

			...these symbols correspond with the four great human castes.

			The men of Yod, or the Inventors, the Producers. The Nobility of Intellect.

			The men of He, or the depositaries of the great truths discovered by the men of Yod: the Savants, the Judges. Professional nobility.

			The men of Vau, or the guardians and defenders of the former: the Warriors. Nobility of the sword.

			The men of the 2nd He, the multitude from which the other classes are continually recruited from the People.<ref>Papus, The Tarot of the Bohemians (Wilshire Book Co, 1978), https://sacred-texts.com/tarot/tob/index.htm.</ref></blockquote>

	The first cause is therefore a Magician, but as this first cause is reflected in everything that is active, the opening character of the Tarot corresponds, in a general way, to every principle of activity. In the Universe he is God, seen as the great suggestive power of all that is accomplished in the Cosmos; in man he is the seat of individual initiative, the centre of perception, of conscience and of will power.<ref>Wirth, Oswald. Tarot of the Magicians: The Occult Symbols of the Major Arcana That Inspired Modern Tarot. San Francisco. CA: Weiser Books, 1990. p. 63</ref>. Note the inappropriate and sexist association of form/formation with the female gender.
